Leicester’s injury problems continue to worsen after striker Jamie Vardy was ruled out for three to four weeks with a hamstring problem.

The former England international, 35 next month, had complained of an issue in the Carabao Cup defeat at Anfield last week, was rested for the St Stephen's Day trip to Manchester City but played and then sustained the injury in Tuesday’s win at home to Liverpool.
